1 MOBILE COMMUNICATION METHOD AND MOBILE STATION [Technical Field] [0001] 5 The present invention relates to a mobile communication method and a mobile station. [Background] [0002] 0 In an LTE (Long Term Evolution) Release-8/9 mobile communication system, a radio base station eNB is configured to transmit "MeasConf ig" including "MeasObj ect", "ReportConfig", and "MeasiD" to a mobile station UE. [0003] 5 Here, the "MeasObject" is information for designating a measurement object carrier based on RAT and a frequency, the "ReportConfig" is information for designating an event such as Al to AS or Bl and B2, or a transmission trigger of "Measurement Report" such as "Periodical". 0 [0004] Furthermore, the "Measid" is information for linking the "MeasObject" to the "ReportConfig" as shown in Fig. 7. [0005] The mobile station UE is configured to perform only 25 measurement of the "MeasObject" associated with the "ReportConfig" based on the "Measid". [0006] Here, in the LTE Release-8/9 mobile communication system, when "Inter-frequency Handover (different frequency handover)" 30 or "Inter-frequency Re-establishment (different frequency re establishment)" has been generated, the mobile station UE is configured to autonomously switch a "Measid" link destination. [0007] 2 For example, as shown in Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, when a serving cell (Serving) is changed from a cell in "Fl" designated by "MeasObject#1" to a cell in "F2" designated by "MeasObi ect#2" by the "Inter- frequency Handover" or the 5 "Inter-frequency Re-establishment", the mobile station UE is configured to change a link destination of "Measid#1" and "Measid#2" from the "Meas0bject#1" to the "MeasObj ect#2", and change a link destination of "Measid#3" and "Measid#4" from the "Meas0bject#2" to the "MeasObject#1". 0 [0008] Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 7 and Fig. 9, when the serving cell (Serving) is changed from the cell in the "Fl" designated by the "MeasObj ect#1" to a cell in "F4", in which the "MeasObject" has not been set, by the "Inter-frequency 5 Handover" or the "Inter-frequency Re-establishment", the mobile station UE is configured to release the "Measid#1" and the "Measid#2" linked to the "MeasObject#l". [0009] Then, a radio base station eNB is configured to add 0 "Meas0bject#4" for designating the "F4" and link the "Measid" to the "Meas0bject#4" by "RRC Connection Reconfiguration" immediately after "Handover Command" or "Re-establishment". [Summary] 25 [0010] In an LTE-Advanced scheme (LTE Release-10 scheme) which is a next generation of the LTE Release-8/9 scheme, the mobile station UE is configured to be able to perform CA (Carrier Aggregation) communication with the radio base station eNB by 30 using PCC (a Primary Component Carrier) and one or a plurality of sees (Secondary Component Carriers) having different carrier frequencies (EARFCN: E-UTRA Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Number). [0011] 3 Such a CA communication has a problem that since a serving cell exists in each PCC and each sec, it is not possible to apply a method of switching and a method of releasing the aforementioned "Measid". 5 [0012] Therefore, the present invention has been achieved in view of the above-described problems, and an object thereof is to provide a mobile communication method and a mobile station, by which it is possible to appropriately switch and release 0 "Measid" in CA communication. [0015] A first aspect of the present invention is summarized as a mobile communication method by which a mobile station communicates with a radio base station by using a primary 5 carrier and one or a plurality of secondary carriers having different carrier frequencies. The method includes a step of releasing, at the mobile station, all configuration information related to the secondary carriers, when a change has occurred in the combinations of the primary carrier and 0 the secondary carriers. [0016] A second aspect of the present invention is summarized as a mobile station, which is configured to be able to communicate with a radio base station by using a primary 25 carrier and one or a plurality of secondary carriers having different carrier frequencies. The mobile station is configured to release all configuration information related to the secondary carriers when a change has occurred in a combination of the primary carrier and the secondary carriers. 30 [0017] As described above, according to aspects of the present disclosure, it is possible to provide a mobile communication method and a mobile station, with which it is possible to appropriately switch and release "Measid" in CA communication.

[Description of Embodiments] [0019] (Mobile communication system according to first embodiment 10 of the present invention) With reference to Fig. 1 to Fig. 5, the configuration of a mobile communication system according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described. The mobile communication system according to the present 15 embodiment is an LTE-Advanced (LTE Release-10) mobile communication system. [0020] In the mobile communication system according to the present embodiment, a mobile station UE is configured to 20 be able to perform CA communication by using PCC and one or a plurality of SCCs having different carrier frequencies (EARFCN). [0021] As shown in Fig. 1, the mobile communication system 25 according to the present embodiment is configured to be able to use CCs of EARFCN #1 through EARFCN #5 during the CA communication. [0022] In the mobile communication system according to the 30 present embodiment, as shown in Fig. 1, the mobile station UE performs CA communication by setting the CC of EARFCN #1 as "PCC", the CC of EARFCN #2 as "SCC #1", and the CC of EARFCN #3 as "SCC #2". [0023] 7 Furthermore, the serving cell in the PCC of the mobile station UE is "Pcell", the serving cell in the SCC #1 of the mobile station UE is "Scell #1", and the serving cell in the SCC #2 of the mobile station UE is "Scell #2". 5 (0024] As shown in Fig. 2, the mobile station UE includes a re-establishment processing unit 11, a handover processing unit 12, a measurement processing unit 13, and a transmission unit 14. 10 10025] The re-establishment processing unit 11 is configured to perform a process related to reconnection (for example, Inter-frequency Re-establishment) of the mobile station UE. 15 [0026] The handover processing unit 12 is configured to perform a process related to handover (for example, Inter-frequency Handover) of the mobile station UE. [0027] 20 The measurement processing unit 13 is configured to perform a measurement process of a measurement object carrier, which has been designated by a "MeasObject", when a "MeasId", the "MeasObject", and a "ReportConfig" are linked and managed. 25 [0028] Furthermore, the measurement processing unit 13 is configured to determine whether or not to release the "MeasId" according to the type of CC designated by the "MeasObject", when a change has occurred in the 30 combinations of the PCC and the SCCs. A detailed determination method will be described later. [0029] The transmission unit 14 is configured to transmit a "Measurement Report" including a measurement result of 35 the "MeasObject" to a radio base station eNB, when the 8 "MeasId", the "MeasObject", and the "ReportConfig" are linked and managed and it is determined that the "ReportConfig" is satisfied. [0030] 5 Hereinafter, with reference to Fig. 3 to Fig. 5, a description will be provided for an operation of the mobile station UE, when a change has occurred in the combinations of the PCC and the SCCs by "Inter-frequency Handover", "Inter-frequency Re-establishment" and the like in the 10 mobile communication system according to the present embodiment. [0031] As shown in Fig. 3, in step S101, the mobile station UE releases all "MeasIds" linked to the "ReportConfig" with 15 a "trigger type" of "Periodical". [0032] In step S102, the mobile stationUE determines whether or not the "MeasObject" for designating PCC (T-PCC) after change is managed. 20 [0033] When it is determined that the "MeasObject" is managed, the present operation proceeds to step S103A. When it is determined that the "MeasObject" is not managed, the present operation proceeds to step S103B. 25 [0034] Then, for each "MeasId" managed by the mobile station UE, operations of steps S103A to S107Aor operations of steps S103B to S107B are performed. [0035] 30 In step S103A, the mobile station UE determines whether or not the "MeasObject", to which a corresponding "MeasId" has been linked, designates PCC (S-PCC) before the change. [0 0 36] 9 When it is determined that the "MeasObject" designates the PCC (S-PCC) before the change, the present operation proceeds to step S104A. When it is determined that the "MeasObject" does not designate the PCC (S-PCC) 5 before the change, the present operation proceeds to step S105A. [0037] In step S104A, the mobile station UE changes a link destination of the "MeasId" from the "Measobject" having 10 designated the S-PCC to the "MeasObject" having designated the T-PCC. [0038] In step S105A, the mobile station UE determines whether or not the "MeasObject", to which the corresponding 15 "MeasId" has been linked, designates the SCC before the change. [0039] When it is determined that the "Measobject" designates the SCC, the present operation proceeds to step 20 S106A. When it is determined that the "MeasObject" does not designate the SCC, the present operation proceeds to step S107A. [0040] In step S106A, the mobile station UE releases the 25 "MeasId". [0041] In step S107A, the mobile station UE maintains the link destination of the "MeasId" without a change. In addition, in step S107A, the mobile station UE may release 30 the "MeasId". [0042] In step S108A, the mobile station UE determines whether or not the processes of steps S103A to S107A have been performed for all "MeasIds". 35 [0043] 10 When it is determined that the processes of steps S103A to S107A have been performed, the present operation is completed. When it is determined that the processes of steps S103A to S107A have not been performed, the mobile 5 station UE returns to step S103A and performs the processes of steps S103A to S107A for a subsequent "MeasId". [0044] Meanwhile, in step S103B, the mobile station UE determines whether or not the "MeasObject", to which the 10 corresponding "MeasId" has been linked, designates the PCC (S-PCC) before the change. [0045] When it is determined that the "MeasObject" designates the PCC (S-PCC) before the change, the present 15 operation proceeds to step S104B. When it is determined that the "MeasObject" does not designate the PCC (S-PCC) before the change, the present operation proceeds to step S105B. [0046] 20 In step S104B, the mobile station UE releases the "MeasId". [0047] In step SlOSB, the mobile station UE determines whether or not the "MeasObject", to which the corresponding 25 "MeasId" has been linked, designates the SCC before the change. [0048] When it is determined that the "MeasObject" designates the SCC, the present operation proceeds to step 30 S106B. When it is determined that the "MeasObject" does not designate the SCC, the present operation proceeds to step S107B. [0049] In step S106B, the mobile station UE releases the 35 "MeasId".
11 [0050] In step S107B, the mobile station UE maintains the link destination of the "MeasId" without a change. In addition, in step S107B, the mobile station UE may release 5 the "MeasId". [0051] In step S108B, the mobile station UE determines whether or not the processes of steps S103B to S107B have been performed for all "MeasIds". 10 [0052] When it is determined that the processes of steps S103B to S107B have been performed, the present operation is completed. When it is determined that the processes of steps S103B to S107B have not been performed, the mobile 15 station UE returns to step S103B and performs the processes of steps S103B to S107B f6r a subsequent "MeasId". [0053] Hereafter, with reference to Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, a description will be provided for an example of a method of 20 switching and a method of releasing the "MeasId" by the mobile station UE, when a change has occurred in the combinations of the PCC and the SCCs by the "Inter-frequency Handover", the "Inter-frequency Re-establishment" and the like in the mobile communication system according to the 25 present embodiment. [0054] For example, a description will be provided for a case in which the combinations of the PCC and the SCCs illustrated in Fig. 4 are changed to combinations of the PCC and the 30 SCCs illustrated in Fig. 5. In such a case, "MeasObject#3" for designating the PCC (T-PCC) after the change is managed by the mobile station UE. [0055] In such a case, since "MeasObject#1", to which the 35 "MeasId#1" has been linked, designates the PCC (S-PCC) 12 before the change, the mobile station UE changes the link destination of the "MeasId#1" from the "MeasObject#1" having designated the S-PCC to the "MeasObject#3" having designated the T-PCC. 5 [0056] Similarly, since the "MeasObject#l", to which the "MeasId#2" has been linked, designates the PCC (S-PCC) before the change, the mobile station UE changes the link destination of the "MeasId#2" from the "MeasObject#l" 10 having designated the S-PCC to the "MeasObject#3" having designated the T-PCC. [0057] Furthermore, since "MeasObject#2", to which "MeasId#3" and "MeasId#4" have been linked, designates the 15 SCC before the change, the mobile station UE releases the "MeasId#3" and the "MeasId#4". [0058] Similarly, since "MeasObject#3", to which "MeasId#5" and "MeasId#6" have been linked, designates the SCC before 20 the change, the mobile station UE releases the "MeasId#5" and the "MeasId#6". [0059] Furthermore, since "MeasObject#4", to which "MeasId#7" has been linked, designates Non-configured CC, 25 the mobile station UE maintains the link destination of the "MeasId#7" without a change. [0060] Even in such a case, the mobile station UE may release the "MeasId#7". 30 [0061] In addition, when "MeasConfig" has been newly notified at the time of the "Inter-frequency Handover", the "Inter-frequency Re-establishment" and the like, the mobile station UE applies the "MeasConfig" after performing 35 the procedure described above in detail.
13 [0062] In accordance with the mobile communication system according to the present embodiment, when a change has occurred in the combinations of the PCC and the SCCs by the 5 "Inter-frequency Handover", the "Inter-frequency Re-establishment" and the like, it is possible for the mobile station UE to appropriately switch and release the "MeasId" based on the type of CC of the link destination of the "MeasId". 10 [0063] (Mobile communication system according to second embodiment of the present invention) Hereinafter, with reference to Fig. 6, the mobile communication system according to a second embodiment of 15 the present invention will be described while focusing on the difference from the mobile communication system according to the above-mentioned first embodiment. [0064] Hereinafter, with reference to Fig. 6, a description 20 will be provided for an operation of the mobile station UE when a change has occurred in the combinations of the PCC and the SCCs by "Inter-frequency Handover", "Inter-frequency Re-establishment" and the like in the mobile communication system according to the present 25 embodiment. [0065] As shown in Fig. 6, in step S201, the mobile station UE releases all "MeasIds" linked to the "ReportConfig" with a "trigger type" of "Periodical". 30 [00661 In step S202, the mobile stationUE determines whether or not the "MeasObject" for designating PCC (T-PCC) after change is managed. [0067] 14 When it is determined that the "MeasObject" is managed, the present operation proceeds to step S203A. When it is determined that the "Measobject" is not managed, the present operation proceeds to step S203B. 5 [0068] Hereinafter, for each "Measld" managed by the mobile station UE, operations of steps S203Ato S21OAor operations of steps S203B to S210B are performed. [0069] 10 In step S203A, the mobile station UE determines whether or not the "MeasObject", to which a corresponding "MeasId" has been linked, designates PCC (S-PCC) before the change. [0070) 15 When it is determined that the "MeasObject" designates the PCC (S-PCC) before the change, the present operation proceeds to step S204A. When it is determined that the "MeasObject" does not designate the PCC (S-PCC) before the change, the present operation proceeds to step 20 S205A. [0071] In step S204A, the mobile station UE changes a link destination of the "MeasId" from the "MeasObject" having designated the S-PCC to the "MeasObject" having designated 25 the T-PCC. [0072] In step S205A, the mobile station UE determines whether or not CC designated by the "MeasObject", to which the corresponding "MeasId" has been linked, has been 30 changed from SCC to Non-configured CC. [0073] When it is determined that the CC has been changed from the SCC to the Non-configured CC, the present operation proceeds to step S206A. When it is determined that the CC 15 has not been changed from the SCC to the Non-configured CC, the present operation proceeds to step S207A. [0074] In step S206A, the mobile station UE releases the 5 "MeasId". [0075] In step S207A, the mobile station UE determines whether or not the CC designated by the "MeasObject", to which the corresponding "MeasId" has been linked, has been 10 changed from the Non-configured CC to the SCC. [0076] When it is determined that the CC has been changed from the Non-configured CC to the SCC, the present operation proceeds to step S208A. When it is determined that the CC 15 has not been changed from Non-configured CC to the SCC, the present operation proceeds to step S209A. [0077] In step S208A, the mobile station UE releases the "MeasId". 20 [0078] In step S209A, the mobile station UE maintains the link destination of the "MeasId" without a change. In addition, in step S209A, the mobile station UE may release the "MeasId". 25 [0079] In step S210A, the mobile station UE determines whether or not the processes of steps S203A to S210A have been performed for all "MeasIds". [0080] 30 When it is determined that the processes of steps S203A to S210A have been performed, the present operation is completed. When it is determined that the processes of steps S203A to S210A have not been performed, the mobile station UE returns to step S203A and performs the processes 35 of steps S203A to S210A for a subsequent "MeasId".
16 [0081] Meanwhile, in step S203B, the mobile station UE determines whether or not the "MeasObject", to which the corresponding "MeasId" has been linked, designates the PCC 5 (S-PCC) before the change. [00821 When it is determined that the "MeasObject" designates the PCC (S-PCC) before the change, the present operation proceeds to step S204B. When it is determined 10 that the "MeasObject" does not designate the PCC (S-PCC) before the change, the present operation proceeds to step S205B. [0083] In step S204B, the mobile station UE releases the 15 "MeasId". [0084] In step S205B, the mobile station UE determines whether or not the CC designated by the "MeasObject", to which the corresponding "MeasId" has been linked, has been 20 changed from the SCC to the Non-configured CC. [0085] When it is determined that the CC has been changed from the SCC to the Non-configured CC, the present operation proceeds to step S206B. When it is determined that the CC 25 has not been changed from the SCC to the Non-configured CC, the present operation proceeds to step S207B. [0086) In step S206B, the mobile station UE releases the "MeasId". 30 [0087] In step S207B, the mobile station UE determines whether or not the CC designated by the "MeasObject", to which the corresponding "MeasId" has been linked, has been changed from the Non-configured CC to the SCC. 35 [0088] 17 When it is determined that the CC has been changed from the Non-configured CC to the SCC, the present operation proceeds to step S208B. When it is determined that the CC has not been changed from Non-configured CC to the SCC, the 5 present operation proceeds to step S209B. [0089] In step S208B, the mobile station UE releases the "MeasId". [0090] 10 In step S209B, the mobile station UE maintains the link destination of the "MeasId" without a change. In addition, in step S209B, the mobile station UE may release the "MeasId". [0091] 15 In step S210B, the mobile station UE determines whether the processes of steps S203B to S210B have been performed for all "MeasIds". [0092] When it is determined that the processes of steps 20 S203B to S210B have been performed, the present operation is completed. When it is determined that the processes of steps S203B to S210B have not been performed, the mobile station UE returns to step S203B and performs the processes of steps S203B to S210B for a subsequent "MeasId". 25 [0093] In addition, when "MeasConfig" has been newly notified at the time of the "Inter-frequency Handover", the "Inter-frequency Re-establishment" and the like, the mobile station UE applies the "MeasConfig" after performing 30 the procedure described above in detail. [0094] (Mobile communication system according to third embodiment of the present invention) Hereinafter, the mobile communication system 35 according to a third embodiment of the present invention 18 will be described while focusing on the difference from the mobile communication system according to the above-mentioned first embodiment. [00951 5 In the mobile communication system according to the present embodiment, when a change has occurred in the combinations of the PCC and the SCCs by "Inter-frequency Handover", "Inter-frequency Re-establishment" and the like, the mobile station UE is configured to release other types 10 of configuration information related to the SCCs. [0096] That is, the mobile station UE releases configuration information related to the changed SCCs, such as configuration information "RadioResourceConfigDedicated" 15 or "RadioResourceConfigCommon" of L1/L2 related to the SCCs, or broadcast information "SystemInformation" related to the SCCs. [00971 Alternatively, the mobile station UE may be 20 configured to release all types of configuration information related to the SCCs. [0098] The aspects of the present embodiment as described above may be expressed as follows. 25 [0099] The first aspect of the present embodiment is summarized as a mobile communication method, in which a mobile station UE performs CA communication with a radio base station eNB by using PCC (a primary carrier) and one 30 or a plurality of SCCs (secondary carriers) having different carrier frequencies, including the steps of: (A) transmitting, from the mobile station UE to the radio base station eNB, "Measurement Report" including a measurement result of "MeasObject (a measurement object carrier) ", when 35 "MeasId (a measurement ID)", the "MeasObject", and 19 "ReportConfig (a report condition)" are linked and managed, and when it is determined that the "ReportConfig" is satisfied; and (B) determining, at the mobile station UE, whether or not to release the "Measid" according to the type of CC designated by the "MeasObject", when a change has occurred in the combinations of the PCC and the SCCs. [0100] In the first aspect of the present embodiment, in the step (B), when the mobile station UE links and manages "Measid#1 (a first measurement ID)", "MeasObject#1 (a first measurement object carrier)" for designating "Fl (a first carrier)", and "ReportConfig#1 (a first report condition)", when the PCC is changed from the "Fl" to "F3 (a second carrier)", and when the mobile station UE manages "MeasObject#3 (a second measurement object carrier)" for designating the "F3", the mobile station UE may change the link destination of the "Measid#l" from the "MeasObject#l" to "MeasObject#3".
